Coffee Chats Vol. 5

An oldie but still relevant. This headline made me laugh and then cry about how real it is - "This Shooting isn't About Gun Control We Refuse to Pass It's About Access to Mental Health Care we Continue to Gut." I've heard the argument that we should deal with mental health instead of put restrictions on guns...but it's usually the same people who want to repeal Affordable Care Act. In light of the recent shooting in Parkland, what's your opinion on this?

...And love is dead! I also saw a lot of people on Twitter saying she should give Brad Pitt a call.That bothers me - she's a successful multi-millionaire who seems to have a close-knit group of friends. The idea that she is unhappy because she hasn't found her "happily ever after" man is ridiculous to me.

My rice cooker has been spewing rice juice every time I cook rice with it, leaving me a gunky mess to clean up every single time. I finally put it to rest and got this awesome pressure cooker! We used it to make turkey chili last night and holy quick - it's amazing!

Olympic snowboarder Chloe Kim is a badass! I read the story of how her father would take her to practice and learn snowboard with her and it was so sweet...which is why I was livid when I heard about a SiriusXM radio host commenting on how her 18th birthday was coming up and "the countdown is on, baby!" and goes on to talk about "all these high school girls." Absolutely disgusting!

A lawsuit says that Ulta sold used beauty products and touted them as brand new! I've never ordered from Ulta before (there just hasn't been any in my area and with makeup, I like to buy them at a brick and mortar store) but if you have, beware!

So frustrating about that radio host's comments about Chloe Kim. I'm in a large radio networking group on FB and many people were posting that story saying how DISGUSTING that is and also how press like that unfortunately gives the radio industry a bad name. :( Sad there there's gross people like that working in media!

Also sad about Jennifer and Justin... and the shooting is tragic. Sad week all around!

This Ulta scandal needs to get blown up! It's so unsanitary AND deceptive to their customers. Bleh. I won't be shopping with them until they release a statement and proof that they will no longer do this. xx The Critical Babe

I literally just got a crockpot a few months ago but have never used it haha. I just discovered the instant pot and I'll def be using it since it seems more useful lol! That turkey chilli sounds amazing!!
